The program runs for four weeks on Friday evenings, beginning Sept. 28. The program will run from 6 p.m. until 6:45 p.m. at the  gym.

The class fee is $30 for the four week program. Space is limited so pre-registration is required. To register, please contact the Recreation Department at 860-763-4379 or stop in at 19 Battle Street.

Also in the Zumba vein is Zumba Gold for the older folks. This program targets the largest growing segment of the population: baby boomers. It takes the Zumba formula and modifies the moves and pacing to suit the needs of the active older participant, as well as those just starting their journey to a fit and healthy lifestyle.

What stays the same are all the elements the Zumba fitness-party is known for: the zesty Latin music, like salsa, merengue, cumbia and reggaeton, the exhilarating, easy-to-follow moves, and the invigorating, party-like atmosphere. It’s a dance-fitness class that feels friendly, and most of all, fun.

This program runs for four Tuesdays, starting on Sept. 15. The class will begin at 4:15 p.m. and end at 5 p.m. in the Kibbe Fuller gym. The fee is $25 for the four classes.
